Chris grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area of Northern California in the 60’s and early 70’s. He got his first guitar at age 12 and immediately began taking lessons. Chris soon realized that not only did he have an affinity for the guitar but also a natural aptitude on the instrument. It wasn’t long before he found himself immersed in the vibrant music community that surrounded him. After High School, Chris moved with his family to Atlanta. It was during this time that he found that he was drawn to Jazz and decided to pursue music as a vocation. Chris enrolled in music courses at Georgia Perimeter College where under the tutelage of some world-class musicians, he begin to develop a solid music foundation consisting of what Chris refers to as, practical music theory and harmony. Over the years, Chris has performed in many venues in the Atlanta area with various musicians playing in many different formats from trios to big bands, as well as, leading his own bands. Teaching is also been a huge part of Chris’ musical journey and something that he finds extremely gratifying and rewarding. Rather then a cookie cutter one size fits all approach to teaching, Chris’ greatest strength as a teacher is his ability to assess how each student learns individually, and develops a creative learning path that suits their personal learning aptitude and motivates them to move forward. Chris is versatile in music most styles of music. These elements combined with many years of performance and teaching allows Chris to offer a well-rounded learning experience to each student. -Reviews- Name: Lisa P.

His name is Chris and I love the fact that he first does an assessment of the student to see how would be the most effective way to teach the music to the student per their each individual personality. He comes to my house which takes the hassle of having to get home from work and drive the student halfway across town for the lesson. Plus I think the stress level drops for a child that is in familiar surroundings and they can learn in a more relaxed setting.

He has a calm, confident nature. We are looking forward to our next lesson. Name: Ashley Cone Date: 2018-09-28 14:31:52 Title: Awesome Experience! Body: Chris is wonderful with my 16 year old son.

He is so sweet and overall is just the sweetest person to be around. As far as lessons go, he is the absolute best. He has been willing to work with me by coming to my home for the lessons each week, because I am in a wheelchair and can not get into and out of places easily unless it is wheelchair accessible. He has taken each and every lesson at my pace and never has rushed into a new lesson until I have mastered what he has already taught me. If I happen to forget some things he has taught me the previous week he is more than willing to show the skill he taught me the previous week again before learning anything new. I have went from barely knowing anything at all about playing the guitar to playing short songs in such a short amount of time that it is truly incredible. I will definitely be booking more lessons with him in the future to learn even more. He has truly made this experience incredibly fun and so worth the time and money spent. I would totally recommend him, and Taylor Robinson Music to friends and family who are or would like to learn any kind of instrument.
